How should uterine fibroids be treated?

Patient's question:

Usually, there's not much going on, but every time I have sex with my boyfriend, I feel uncomfortable in my private area. Not only is the color of my discharge abnormal, but the smell is also very unpleasant. This issue has been troubling me for a long time. Please ask: If I have uterine fibroids, how should they be treated?

Doctor's answer:

Generally, uterine fibroids smaller than 5 centimeters that do not cause frequent menstruation or excessive menstrual flow do not require surgery. Oral medication can be taken. After menopause, small uterine fibroids may shrink and disappear on their own. If the fibroids are larger than 5 centimeters and accompanied by symptoms, surgical treatment is necessary. Regular follow-up examinations are required to carefully monitor the development of the fibroids. The recurrence of uterine fibroids poses a serious threat to women's health. Patients should avoid sexual activity during treatment and pay attention to personal hygiene. Finally, it is hoped that female patients can receive professional treatment.
